Third-Party Social Networking Sites You Connect to the Services

. When you have enabled the use of our Services through a third-party
social networking site or mobile or other application such as Facebook,
Google or Twitter (a “Social Networking Site”) or connect or link our
Services to a Social Networking Site, you permit us to access and use
certain information about you that is made available to us through or from
that Social Networking Site. The information obtained by us varies by
Social Networking Site and may be affected by the permission and privacy
settings you establish at that Social Networking Site, but can include
information such as your name, profile picture, public Facebook profile,
network, gender, username, user ID, age range or birthday, place of work,
relationship interests, language, location, country, interests, photos,
photos you are tagged in, videos, contacts list, friends lists or followers
and other information such as information about Facebook friends you might
share in common with other members of the Services. By using or linking our
Services through or with a Social Networking Site, you are authorizing us
to collect, store, retain and use, in accordance with this Policy, any and
all of your information that we have obtained from the Social Networking
Site, including to create a profile page and account for you. Depending on
the Social Networking Site and your privacy settings, we may also post
information to your Social Networking Site. Your agreement to the foregoing
takes place when you “accept” or “allow” or “go to” (or other similar
terms, such as tapping “Okay”) our application from a Social Networking
Site, when you go to a Social Networking Site from the Services, when you
sign up or login to the Services through a Social Networking Site (such as
by tapping “Sign up with Facebook” or “Log in with Facebook” on the
Services), when you otherwise connect or link your Social Networking Site
to our Services or when you transfer information to us from such site. If
there is information about your “friends” or people you are associated with
in your Social Networking Site account, the information we obtain about
those persons may also depend on the privacy settings such people have with
the applicable Social Networking Site. You acknowledge and agree that we
are not responsible for, and have no control over, any applicable privacy
settings on any Social Networking Sites (including any settings related to
any messages or advertisements about us that the Social Networking Site may
send to you or your friends). You should always review, and if necessary,
adjust your privacy settings on Social Networking Sites before getting or
using applications such as ours or linking or connecting your Social
Networking Site account to the Services.

h. Location Data. We collect information about your
location through GPS, Wi-Fi, wireless network triangulation, or other
methods in order to obtain your location for the purposes of providing our
Services. We may also approximate your location by your IP Address. In some
cases, we assign the latitude and longitude of the center of a city or
state on record for you to your profile as a way to improve our analytics
and matches for you.

i. Social Networks Through Your Interactions. When you
interact with our Services through various social media networks, such as
when you “Like” us on Facebook or when you follow us or share our content
on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram or other social networks, we may
receive some information about you that you permit the social network to
share with third parties. The data we receive is dependent upon your
privacy settings with the social network. You should always review and, if
necessary, adjust your privacy settings on third-party websites and social
media networks and services before linking or connecting them to our
Services.

j. Information Provided by the Company Group. We may
receive information about you from other companies and affiliates in the
Company Group, so that information you provide may be used by us to provide
you the Services, communicate with you or provide you advertisements or
other personalized content.

k. Information Provided by Others. We may be provided with
information relating to you or your conduct on the Services by other users
of the Services. For example, we will collect your email address if another
user tries to refer us to you. We also collect information that third-party
organizations may provide to us, such as contact details, demographic
information, credit reference or fraud prevention information. Financial
institutions or payment processors may also provide us updated payment
information or payment methods related to your paid account or paid
subscription and services.

l. Address Book. We may also offer you the ability to
import your address book contacts from your mobile device with your
permission or to manually enter email addresses so that you can (i) locate
your contacts on the Services or other products or services offered by us;
or (ii) invite your contacts to join you on the Services or other products
or services offered by us. We will store those contacts for purposes of
alerting you when your contacts join the Services or other products or
services offered by us at a later time, so that you may connect with them
on our platform, and to suggest friends and connections to other members of
the Services or other products or services offered by us.

We also collect, use and share aggregated, deidentified and/or anonymous
data (“Aggregated Data”) for any purpose. Examples include aggregated
statistical or demographic data or data provided in hashed, non-human
readable form. For example, we may aggregate your usage data on how you use
the Services (“Usage Data”) to calculate the percentage of users accessing
a specific website feature. Aggregated Data may be derived from your
personal data but does not directly or indirectly identify you and
therefore does not amount to personal data.

CROSS DEVICE TRACKING

If you log in to your account with us using multiple devices (for instance,
your phone and laptop), we will link your devices to your account. This
allows us to provide a seamless user experience to you. We also work with
third parties to employ technologies, including the application of
statistical modelling tools, which attempt to recognize you across multiple
devices so that we understand how you use our Service across various
devices, to ensure the safety and security of your data and the Company
Services, to show you targeted advertising (with your consent) tailored to
your interests and experience, and to measure the performance of
advertising campaigns.

Fraud Prevention Cookies These cookie files, flash storage tokens, smart phone SDK
applications, or other software on the end user’s device

between you and us, that identifier is accessed and checked
through third party databases to determine if the device
has been associated with suspected fraud or abuse reported
by other online service providers in connection with prior
transactions involving that device.


Third Party Data Collection & Interest-Based Advertising

We participate in interest-based advertising and use third party
advertising companies to serve you targeted advertisements based on your
browsing history. We permit third party online advertising networks, social
media companies and other third-party services, to collect information
about your use of our online services over time so that they may play or
display ads on our services, on other websites, or services you may use,
and on other devices you may use. Typically, though not always, the
information used for interest-based advertising is collected through
tracking technologies, such as cookies, web beacons, embedded scripts,
location-identifying technologies, and similar technology (collectively,
“tracking technologies”), which recognize the device you are using and
collect information, including click stream information, browser type, time
and date you visited the site, AdID, precise geolocation and other
information. We may share a common account identifier (such as a hashed
email address or user ID) with our third-party advertising partners to help
identify you across devices. We and our third-party partners use this
information to make the advertisements you see online more relevant to your
interests, as well as to provide advertising-related services such as
reporting, attribution, analytics and market research. We may also use
services provided by third parties (such as social media platforms) to
serve targeted ads to you and others on such platforms. We may do this by
providing a hashed version of your email address or other information to
the platform provider. See “Your Choices About Online Adshere, to learn more about
interest-based advertising.

Social Media Widgets and Advertising.
Our services may include social media features, such as the Facebook Like
button, Pinterest, Instagram, Twitter or other widgets. These social media
companies may recognize you and collect information about your visit to our
services, and they may set a cookie or employ other tracking technologies.
Your interactions with those features are governed by the privacy policies
of those companies.

We display targeted advertising to you through social media platforms, such
as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn and other social media forums.
These companies have interest-based advertising programs that allow us to
direct advertisements to users who have shown interest in our services
while those users are on the social media platform, or to groups of other
users who share similar traits, such as likely commercial interests and
demographics. We may share a unique identifier, such as a user ID or hashed
email address, with these platform providers or they may collect
information from our website visitors through a first-party pixel, in order
to direct targeted advertising to you or to a custom audience on the social
media platform. These advertisements are governed by the privacy policies
of those social media companies that provide them. If you do not want to
receive targeted ads on your social networks, you may be able to adjust
your advertising preferences through your settings on those networks. You
may learn more about advertising preferences by clicking on the links
provided below. Please note that these links are provided for your
convenience only and we do not control the content or features that may be

    . We use Google Analytics to recognize you and link the devices you use
    when you visit our websites or services on your browser or mobile
    device, log in to your account on our services, or otherwise engage

(such as the Google Analytics cookie) and third-party cookies (such as the
DoubleClick advertising cookie) or other third-party cookies together to
inform, optimize, and display ads based on your past visits to the Service.

Interest-Based Advertising
. We support the self-regulatory principles for online behavioral
advertising (Principles) published by the Digital Advertising Alliance
(DAA). This means that we allow you to exercise choice regarding the
collection of information about your online activities over time and across
third-party websites for online interest-based advertising purposes. More
information about these Principles can be found at www.aboutads.info. If you want to
opt out of receiving online interest-based advertisements on your internet
browser from advertisers and third parties that participate in the DAA
program and perform advertising-related services for us and our partners,
please follow the instructions at www.aboutads.info/choices,
or

http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/

to place an opt-out cookie on your device indicating that you do not want
to receive interest-based advertisements. Opt-out cookies only work on the
internet browser and device they are downloaded onto. If you want to opt
out of interest-based advertisements across all your browsers and devices,
you will need to opt out on each browser on each device you actively use.
If you delete cookies on your device generally, you will need to opt out
again.

If you want to opt out of receiving online interest-based advertisements on
mobile apps, please follow the instructions at

Please note that when you opt out of receiving interest-based
advertisements, this does not mean you will no longer see advertisements
from us or on our online services. It means that the online ads that you do
see from DAA program participants should not be based on your interests. We
are not responsible for the effectiveness of, or compliance with, any
third-parties’ opt-out options or programs or the accuracy of their
statements regarding their programs. In addition, third parties may still
use cookies to collect information about your use of our online services,
including for analytics and fraud prevention as well as any other purpose
permitted under the DAA’s Principles.

consent or by excluding California residents from such promotions or
activities.

technologies when you visit or interact with our websites, use our apps or

information to other businesses for advertising and other purposes. By

businesses that participate in the opt out tool. To make opt-out requests
